“If he wins the National Review/Romney/Bush crowd have destroyed themselves forever.”
No they haven’t. Its all about the bucks. If their patrons want them to continue with a given political line, they will, no matter what.
They don't get any bucks unless they have the political influence. There is no going back for either the country or the GOP after this election. National Review conservatism is something to read about in history books. The Democrats are the party of the rich, big business, open borders, free trade, and endless war. No need for a GOP with the same agenda.
A "President Hillary" would be a disaster of biblical proportions. She is an unwrapped mummy left over from another age that can't handle the crisis that are coming.
The future belongs to radicalism from all sides not the septuagenarian Weekley Standard editors or Wall Street Mitt Romney.
It should be part of the party rules that anyone that takes an active stand against the nominated candidate will not receive any assistance from National party.
